The tent size worked well to fit in my suitcase. It was small and light. The three inside pockets: one on the ceiling and two by the doors were great. There are many tabs on the ceiling of the tent. I was able to make a triangle clothesline to hang small items to dry during the day. \r\nIt rained a lot and hard! The tent was pretty dry. One end got a little condensation more than the other because the rainfly needed to come down just a couple more inches so my sleeping bag was damp at the feet in the mornings. If you tuck your tarp up and under the rainfly, that may help. \r\nI used the 4 guylines and staked the tent on all four corners, the two vestibules, and the two middle rainfly tabs. FYI, You will need two more stakes not included. Also, the stakes have a small ledge so I used two stakes with hooks for the vestibules that held better.\r\nIt comes with a footprint which is good. The footprint isn't super thick and feels like the rainfly, which is VERY FRAGILE, so use a tarp as well! Harbor Freight has them and they are not expensive.\r\nCONS: \r\nThe rainfly is VERY FRAGILE so be careful. I was climbing out and my hydration backpack caught on it and made some little holes. Also, the tent flipped onto rocks from a gust of wind while I was taking it down and made six more gelpencap-sized holes. There goes my waterproof. :( I was so disappointed, so be forewarned. \r\nThe tent DOES NOT come with a repair kit. However, Kelty will repair it for free within 4-6 weeks if you pay shipping. Do not use duct tape or they may not repair it. \r\nIt is a small tent. I was pretty cramped with my sleeping bag, wide Klymit pad, hydration backpack, and carry-on bag. Get a 3-man tent if you are not concerned about size or weight. It will be easier to find your things with a little more room. \r\nThe tent is not very tall so if you hope to use a cot, forget it. I personally like sleeping on the ground. \r\nThe poles are connected in the middle by a piece of plastic, so I was very careful putting them together. It's not my favorite design.\r\n\r\n","textLength":2240,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Renee","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2023-08-24T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"kelty.com","siteUrl":"https://www.kelty.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/2102_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"1465-40835222","title":"Kelty Far Out 2 Tent","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/1465-40835222","category":"tents","reviewCount":11,"ratingCount":11,"averageRating":4.3,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":2,"3":0,"4":2,"5":7},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":6958090,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Good tent","text":"It’s sturdy and the ability to put the fly down without getting out is great.
